Find Your Inner Child Please

Find your inner child please,
You're grumpy and no fun.
Snapping, snarling
Grouching, growling
And patience, you have none.
I know you're getting older
And tiredness plays a part,
Find your inner child please,
He's deep within your heart.

Find your inner child please,
Don't be unkind to me.
Gloomy, moody,
Bearish, broody,
You used to be carefree.
I know you've troubles on your mind,
That sometimes cause you pain,
Find your inner child please
And let him out again.

Find your inner child please,
Don't be such a bore.
Silent, sulking
Miserable, moping,
You've no reason to ignore.
Talk about your worries,
Let them fly away,
Find your inner child please
And let him out to play.
